Jeff Schapiro: Is Mark Obenshain Preparing a "Nuclear Option" to Steal the Virginia AG Election?
On November 16, I raised a red flag that Mark Obenshain and the Republicans could be preparing to "contest" the Virginia Attorney General's election, thus sending it to the Republican dominated Virginia General Assembly for a decision. Some claimed I was worrying too much (note: Sen. Chap Petersen agreed with me that this was something to keep an eye on), but mostly I just wanted to make people aware that this was a serious possibility. So this morning, I was pleased to see one of Virginia's top political analysts, Jeff Schapiro of the Richmond Times-Dispatch, basically agreeing with everything that I said.
